The Body Electric by Beth Revis
2.0
2.5
This was actually very creepy, it's the kind of book that makes you think and almost fear technology and the future and who knows what is actually possible?
The premise involves Ella whose parents have invented technology to relive their best memories, this is then used so Ella can enter people's memories and find information.
Ella halucinates her dead father and hears his warnings about the government and how things are not safe. Then she needs to figure out who this Jack guys is...surprise surprise they dated.
She discovers a rebel group and lots of fighting against the government who want to use this technology for something not entirely good. We discover that her mom is a clone, Jack is a clone and she herself is...SO CREEPY. I was literally reading this and so so weirded out!
I do wish the world had more development and building as I felt a bit lost in terms of the country, setting and generally where we were.
Characters ahh I wish there was more development of side characters as it felt like to me they were just there?
I did enjoy this book, was creeped out but wanted a bit more from it.
